I love the recordings on the Commodore label, and they sound so much better on lp (and these from Mel and Joe have never been on cd). That's especially true with the ZP3. Those who have trouble with pre-tape recordings should listen to them on vinyl through the ZP3, wow!

I befriended Geo. Handy when I was the sound man at the Grossinger Hotel way back... He was then the house piano player... I transcribed a lot of his stuff from record to tape for him... Georgie was one of the greats, now way forgotten... This session with Zoot is great... A lot of the stuff is overdubbed with Zoot playing like four saxes at once... The effect was really stirring... And the arrangements were top drawer... (m.)

If a rabbit defined intelligence the way man does, then the most intelligent animal would be a rabbit, followed by the animal most willing to obey the commands of a rabbit. -Robert Brault, writer (b. 1938)
